Tica Team ST 568 G Big Game Fishing Reel

I have an upcoming trip to Hutan Melintang on 31 August - 2 September 2007. This would be my first deep sea trip and my longest trip on a boat. I usually go on a 2 Day 1 Night trip. This would be my first 3 Day 2 Night trip. I don't have any suitable reel for deep sea. Most of the people that I asked told me that a multiplier would be a more suitable reel compared to a spinning set. With that in mind, I decided to get a Tica Team ST 568 G Big Game Fishing Reel. Cheap and reliable.

I have loaded the reel with 500 yards of 50lb Fins PRT Braided line. Even after loading with 50 lb line, the spool still looks kinda empty. I guess the capacity is quite big. Maybe next time when I decided to change the lines, I will load it with more line.
